GOOD Magazine assets, video. E-waste—the computers, cell phones and other electronics we throw away—is often shipped overseas to developing countries where it can be recycled more cheaply. But E-waste recycling and disposal operations found in some of these developing nations are extremely hazardous to humans. “Recycling” involves open burning of plastic waste, and exposure to these toxins wreaks havoc on the human body and can be fatal. Despite all this, the U.S. refuses to ban e-waste exportation. There are many ways you can help. Please visit http://www.goodmagazine.com/ for more information. From Wiredset Digital Agency.

To Wiredset,
That was a good presentation indeed but sad to say if we talk about economy, who would ever think it is hazardous if your stomach is empty? Now a days here in Philippines, it can be seen daily from every routine of work but people refuse to believe that it (burning of plastic, melting of copper etc) is hazardous because it is their prime source of income in junkshop industry.The sad story is, the young ones (children in the street) were mostly the victims. I hope our government will also pay attention to this kind of problem. Thank you for that very informative news....
